Sing A New Song
Isaiah 40-42; 1 Peter 3
“Sing to the Lord a new song, his praise from the ends of the earth…Let the desert and its towns raise their voices; let the settlements where Kedar lives rejoice…”
Isaiah 42:10, 11
Every nation and people group has a song to sing which emerges from their culture and history. When they sing their song to the Lord of all creation, they are offering worship with the gifts they have been given. The settlements of Kedar had their own new song, as do the first nations of every land. Music reflects culture and yet worship has been exported by a few global generators, rather than inspired by the Holy Spirit through the cultural voice of each people group. It’s time to sing to the Lord a new song, and his praise from the ends of the earth.
“Lord God, let your new song rise up in me and in your Church, for your glory.”
